Someone explain to me what makes Aaron Curry worth the 3rd pick?

Peterson would have picked him.

OK, Safe does not mean bad or incapeable of growth. It just means a guy has performed and you know a certain amount of info about a guy that you know you get. People use "safe" like a curse word around here. So "unsafe" is better? A guy who hasnt lived up to his "potential" for some reason is better? I think potential is a much bigger curse word. It means you arent getting it done yet and you need to step it up. Hard workers with a solid skill set are "safe" because they're already getting it done and moving in the right direction.
